Deanna is the artist and maker behind The Bold Artisan Boutique, a creative, locally rooted business specializing in dreadlock artistry and handcrafted hair, skin, and body products. As a dreadlock artist, Deanna offers natural dread creation and maintenance, custom handmade dreadlock extensions, extension installation and refreshing, braiding, and complimentary Sacred Crown consultations. She loves helping each client explore their options and create a look that reflects their personality, lifestyle, and individuality. Her approach is relaxed, welcoming, and completely personalized—because no two crowns should ever be the same. When she is not creating hair, Deanna can usually be found experimenting with oils, herbs, tallow, and essential oils. Her growing small-batch collection includes whipped tallow moisturizers and lotions, hair and scalp oils, beard and facial oils, lip oils and balms, body scrubs, magnesium products, bath and body care, and specialty dreadlock-care products. Every item is thoughtfully handcrafted in small quantities with a focus on quality, practicality, and everyday enjoyment. The Bold Artisan Boutique is proudly based in the Flagstaff Region, where Deanna participates in community events and markets, supports fellow makers, shares local businesses, and builds connections through referrals and collaboration. Her specialized hair services also give rural clients an option closer to home, while her travels throughout Alberta and British Columbia allow her to proudly represent the creativity found within the region. Creative, unconventional, and always evolving, The Bold Artisan Boutique is about more than hair or skincare—it is about helping people feel confident, cared for, and free to express what makes them beautifully unique.
